Not that lot from "Trumpton?" ...Pugh, Pugh, Barney Magrew, Chocolate, Dibble & Grub? They were firemen weren't they - or has the RA affected my brain?  Ellie

You can have Pugh, Barney Magrew, Cuthbert, Dibble and Grub, Julie - and I`ll have the Chocolate. Hi Ellie, and welcome to the madhouse!

You'll soon come to realise, Ellie, that Julie is not quite - how shall I say it "right" if you get my drift. She tends to get very excited about anything in a uniform - even if it's knitted bunny in a sailor suit. We tend to humour her as much as we can . The poor soul can't help it. It all started at Will and Kate's wedding. She'd just made a lunge for the D of E, standing on tiptoes in her 9" platforms, when Sheila inadvertantly let off a volley of cannonballs in The Mall. Julie tumbled backwards into Dor's tea trolley and ended up on a roll, out through the front door having picked up a guardsman on the way. She's not been the same since and I dread to think what happened to the guardsman.
Can someone point Ellie in the direction of our Royal Wedding Adventure?

It might be good for your pain management Ellie but your standing in the community is diminishing whilst we speak

What about Jean and that vicar doing cartwheels after the ceremony?  We can't take her anywhere, she's not like me , sensible and very sedate.

ellie50 wrote:Um? Is that true? Ellie Well, it was true about Jean doing the cartwheels - who can ever forget the sight of her pink spotted bloomers? But as for Doreen being sensible and sedate............................. if she didn`t have me to keep an eye on her there`s no telling where she`d end up. Ask her what happened in the igloo when we were doing winter sports - the eskimos are still traumatised.

Now I am intrigued! However, what goes on in some igloos is best kept secret. Ellie

Ellie - check down the "Bit of Fun" forum until you see the "For Jean.........and all the tassle gang" There are about 16 pages of rubbish cataloguing the whole disaster!!

Oh dear! Got as far as page 3 - Doreen's mention about "shimmering pinstripes", Kathleen's response about a deckchair and had to abandon the computer in a rush for the loo!!! This is not getting the housework done but I'm going back to read the rest. Ellie

Dorothy - much as I hate getting angry with a good friend, you STILL haven't returned my pink and yellow spotted bloomers and I need them desperately! Please return in plain brown paper asap. I know you have used them as a sailing aid as they were seen tied to your windsurfing board when you were cockle picking on Morecambe beach yeterday.
